Crossways: A Brief TourFrom a formal Entrance porch, one enters a light and airy Reception hall where the chic and modern contemporary interior design cleverly retains the historical features and aura of the original property dating back to the 1930’s. This design statement is apparent around all the property.
Off the hall is a bespoke hand-built kitchen by Brookman’s of Smallbone, with a large central island, and which is fully equipped with Gaggenau and Fisher and Paykel appliances . Further features include a picture window with a seating area to admire the beautiful views of the Percuil River. To the rear are French doors to allow access to a large sun terrace for barbeques and alfresco dining. Off the kitchen is a Side hall, with a daily informal access door, where a Utility room is located at one end and a Cloakroom with w/c to the other.
Open plan, the kitchen sweeps to a separate Dining room which has a featured bay window with central French doors allowing access as well as overlooking to the gardens. A door leads back to the Reception hall where a further door flows to a Lounge which has dual aspect windows to admire the views of the river to the front and the south facing gardens to the rear. On one wall is a double-sided wood burning stove which is also utilized by a spacious Media room /Snug, again with dual aspect windows and offering further reception space.
To one corner of the Media / Snug room is a secondary staircase rising to the first floor and an independent landing, where the fourth and fifth bedrooms are served by an elegant shower room. This whole area has been purposely designed for guests and could also appeal to teenagers yearning for a degree of independence and privacy.
From the main reception hall an arts and crafts staircase rises to a galleried landing giving access to three very different bedroom suites, all with built in wardrobes. The Principal bedroom has delightful river views and a tasteful En-Suite shower room overlooking the rear garden. The Second bedroom has a featured bay window overlooking the gardens and a luxury bathroom with a shower over. The third bedroom has lovely river views and a bespoke En-Suite shower/wet Room.
On the top floor is an attic room with two skylight windows that is utilised as a hobbies or playroom and could also be used as a study. There is also a walk-in linen store.

They are beautifully landscaped with expanses of lawn and perfectly positioned sun terraces for sunbathing and alfresco dining, all bordered and screened by an array of colour and hedging. The gardens are designed for ease of maintenance with a focus on offering a haven for well-being and relaxation.
